Re: [htdig-dev] configuration failed on Solaris 2.8

[Gabriele B. <bar...@in...>]

Hi dear Ziying,

    3.2.0b3 is actually very buggy and you should not rely on it. However, 
I replied to your bug posting just a few days ago, as you can see from: 
https://sourceforge.net/tracker/?func=detail&atid=104593&aid=799938&group_id=4593

    I could send you an e-mail because you sent an anonymous bug report.

    Please try with the latest snapshot code and let us know.

Thank you,
-Gabriele
